I thought of writing about dbus-java, but I excluded it for two reasons: first, 
because it's hardly ever used on Linux distributions in general; second, 
because it already has the marshalling and transport code, so porting it to 
kdbus is actually not that difficult.

The same applies to the NDesk C# implementation. There are also a couple of 
other obscure bindings to other languages, which are either using libdbus-1 or 
they're implementing the protocol by themselves.
